All-New Movie Line-Up At The Grounds

The season is set to thrill fantasy and sci-fi lovers with back-to-back screenings of “Dune: Part One” and “Dune: Part Two”, as well as marathons of well-loved franchises like “The Lord of the Rings” and “Star Wars”. You can also expect nostalgic throwbacks to local Hong Kong classics in addition to old favourites like “The Sound of Music”, “Jumanji” and “Jurassic Park”. In association with Fork Lore, The Grounds is hosting a series of foodie films (think “Chef” and “Roadrunner”) that celebrate the culinary arts through heartwarming dramas and hilarious comedies. Plus, if you missed the Barbenheimer phenomenon that took the world by storm, this is your chance to finally catch it (you can either experience the movies in surround sound speakers with your friends or with a set of high-fidelity headphones)!

Expanded Food And Drink Offerings At The Grounds

No movie night is complete without good food. Continuing its collaboration with BaseHall, you’ll be able to dine on a diverse selection of vendors from the multi-concept food hall including Nocino, Cha Chaan Teng classics from CCT, Twins Liangpi, Pinky Bakery and more. Be sure to keep an eye out on The Grounds’ social media channels for news on exclusive, limited-time menus. Given its resounding success last year, The Grounds is bringing back Black Sheep’s Gelato Messina to the mix, offering an indulgent dessert selection to satisfy your sweet tooth.

As for drinks, you’ll be spoilt for choice with the options from several partners. Cocktails, beer, wine, juice and more will be available, as well as plenty of popcorn.

Order food and drinks to your pod via the ordering app accessible by the QR code on your table.
